Descripción
Sumario:The Haitian Revolution began in 1791 as a slave revolt on the French colonial island of Saint Domingue and ended thirteen years later with the founding of an independent black republic. Waves of French West Indians-slaves, white colonists, and free blacks-fled the upheaval and flooded southern U.S. ports-most notably New Orleans-bringing with them everything from French opera to voodoo. Alfred N. Hunt discusses the ways these immigrants affected southern agriculture, architecture, language, politics, medicine, religion, and the arts.
